Michael Baldwin: Here's a proposal for a new party

American citizens are offended and appalled at the way our federal government representatives have acted during this budget impasse, which turned into a juvenile game of chicken.

We need a new political party that represents Americans, not lobbyists, foreign entities, international politics and ideologies.

The Nationalist party will represent the American citizens and place American citizens first before their leaders, before their parties, before their agendas or their biases.

The American Nationalist party will bond with the American people and become the middle ground, where all views, liberal or conservative, are shared.

The current political parties have been robbing the treasury; they have held America’s economy and people hostage with corporate influence agendas.

It’s time to heal our wounds and move on with this American Nationalist party, which will unite all Americans. In order to achieve this goal, I believe we will need to vote out the current politicians in all offices of both federal and state governments who are used to the old way of back-door deals, political bargaining and old-boy politics.
